I rang up before I preferred and spoke to a very helpful and knowledgable chap who advised me what I needed as opposed to what I thought I needed thus saving me money
The computer was delivered in time and has been working very well since
A good quality product at a cheap price…

Everything arrived as ordered and up and working perfectly. No problems since purchase. I ordered a dual core I3 with 8GB RAM with Windows 7 + support package(only used once for Software issue solved). The performance exceeded my expectations. I was happy to just get the integrated graphics processor as my previous system had Windows 7 with a powerful AMD processor and separate Graphics card but I had some electrical and system issues which shut down the computer. I also got my previous system…

The Palicom guys are great, true British Customer Service at last. Made one email query with my requirements, had a phone call with advice and the ins & outs explained and made payment. Four days later the system arrived. Have made two calls to the support service and they could not have been more helpful. I would recommend anyone to purchase their system through this company. Thanks for a great service…

My trusty but elderly PC needed to retire. My husband who researches all big purchases to the nth degree and who was also an IT professional suggested Palimcomp. So that was first big test passed.
Delivery to our relatively remote area was prompt.
Set up and transfer of data was straightforward.
And most importantly I very quickly forgot the PC was new, proving it was a smooth transition and it was just getting on with the job.
As a writer my PC is a vital tool and I trust this new one…

I contacted Palicomp because it is local to where I live I am very glad I did I got great advise when I first contacted them, And since I received my new computer I have been very happy with it I am on it every day.
The time it takes to boot up is brilliant only about 45 seconds if I did not have to type in a password it would be faster, It does everything that I want it is very quiet, the graphics are extremely good, it has great storage because of the 1tb hard drive, I cannot fault it at…

The computer is brilliant, not had a single problem!
The service Palicomp offered was great, from the ease of placing my order on your website, through to the computer arriving. The team called me up after my order to go through some changes and it was all handled smoothly and quickly.
I will definitely be using Palicomp again in the future…

Purchased Haswell Hydro system from Pallicomp after reading favourable reviews. Happy to say that my order was processed very quickly & impressive customer service and follow-up.
Three months later received unsolicited follow-up enquiry from Pallicomp as to whether there were any problems-so a company that appears to value its customers and take their reputation seriously…

I needed a high end specification PC for photographic and video editing purposes. Palicomp had a decent spec base model and then with their modifications system, I beefed it up further (faster processor, more memory, better cooling etc). When some of the hardware could not physically fit together they telephoned and suitable alternatives were discussed and offered. The PC was built and delivered in a timely fashion and after a slight glitch with a faulty software driver which the support people…

Absolutely no problems at all with the Palicomp A10 7850K PC system. Fantastic price, fantastic deal.
I thought I was going to have to put together (yet) another PC for myself until I stumbled across their website.
I must say the deal they offered me on the 3 year top of the range warranty and free upgrade on the PSU were fantastic too. Now I have peace of mind as well as a fantastic system.
The ordering process was painless and there were plenty of upgrade options on offer too (I took…

I bought a new computer as my old one kept crashing and I was getting to know the local PC technician too well. I bought it online and was able to specify my exact requirements. It was delivered promptly and suffice to say that I haven't seen my technician since!
It was also much better value than buying from PC World as only the stuff I need is on it, rather than a lot of stuff which is ready installed on store computers which takes up space on the hard disk and probably affects…

This is my glowing review above - but i just read a few one-star reviews and I have to sympathise with them - I was lucky in that my technician sat with me as I was ordering the PC to explain every bit of it. I would agree with the bad reviewers that I would not recommend any non expert to buy from palicomp - do it through the person who you rely on to service your machine.

I had two PC's for my sons gaming and they are still running fine. One was upgraded and the power supply was a running concern failing twice but the turn around and support from aftersales (I took the extra warranty) was fast and eventually upgraded supply solved the problem.
I bought recently a machine for an employee to use for CAD design at home and his feedback is that the machine handles the workload very well (no issues). Palicomp feel like a family run business rather than a big…

I would quite simply like to say this, look down the page at each 1 star review or higher where the patrons seem to be most generous; and you will see they all exclaim that they were charged abhorrent amounts and were not informed nor requested.
After my father completed his sale and I offered to pay for the system I enquired as to the amount, it was conflicting to the original order and I asked why. He proceeded to get an invoice from this establishment, which was not a standard part of the…

I had a problem with my PC and the Palicomp technicians James and Ryan were exceptional. They new where they were at at each stage of the problem. I was offered remote help which was invaluable to me and when that was not possible I was talked through each process over the phone in a very clear and calm way.
A number of procedures were carried out on my machine and so far it seems to be rectified.
Thanks again to Palicomp technicians for getting me up and running again!!…

We are well meaning, but non techie, parents trying to buy a gaming PC for our son and it has been a horrible experience. We picked our way through the complicated list of options and created what we thought was a servicable system, within my son's budget. We then got a 'helpful' call from Palicomp, supposedly checking our order. That would have been useful, but instead they forced a £50 warranty on us, in exchange for some 'upgrades' that we hadn't requested. Nothing was put in writing…

When I bought my computer from them, they did call for the warranty upgrade. But they did not force it upon us. The warranty has proved to have been a life saver..... they have let me have new parts for this PC for free when I paid to upgrade my graphics card as it broke... I don't see why you are having so many issues. Although there is one setting that likes to mess up by itself and cause the PC not to work. It is easily changed though.....

To be fair, Palicomp's website is similar in design to most gaming comuter websites and fairly simple. To give a company a 1 star review based upon your own admitted lack of knowledge is unfair. I've had no issues with them at all, in fact I still use them regularly.

Just because you didn't know what you were doing, or ordering is not their fault. Who in their right mind would commit to buying an expensive piece of computing equipment without ensuring it had an O/S?

Going by the best buy report in Computer Shopper September 2014, I was going to place an order until I came across the 1 Star reviews on this website.
Am I glad I took the time to read them. Why do computer magazine reviews not take into account the sales and after service of these companies…

First of all this is the first windows computer i have had that hasn't given me one single problem after 6 months of running it. i have now had the computer for a year and it's faultless! gaming with new games? not a problem. the computer handles itself wonderfully and the after sales support was professional and fast. the staff are friendly and understanding for the less tech savvy people around :P not to mention they talked through my order and saved me money where i was buying something i…

Recent problems with my computer resulted in me contacting Palicomp Support Staff. I found them to be courteous, knowledgeable,very understable in the guidance I received. I also found them to be patient whilst explaining to me the best solutions to my problem, therefore I have no hestitation in recommending their products and their support to everyone. They are just superb!
I cannot honestly think of anything I didn't like about my whole experience with Palicomp…
